Return to Nature
The fastest update to Seeking the Dao in the Mortal World!
Qin Yi used the same trick again, using an invisibility spell to get to Li Wuxian's side.
The little girl was in the middle of her cultivation and was unaware of his arrival. Qin Yi sensed it briefly and was quite amazed—she had truly entered the realm of cultivation, and was indeed practicing the Basic Mantra he had left her before he left.
Although I haven't officially entered the Phoenix Emergence stage yet, I do already possess Spiritual Qi, similar to when I was just laying the foundation. The time until I officially begin my enlightenment and the fledgling phoenix sings its first song will likely be after this meditation session, or at most a few more times.
She was only three years old... Qin Yi never expected that she could understand the Mnemonic at this age, or even that she could sense the Jade Pendant so quickly, let alone practice according to the Mnemonic. Even if she were three years older, she might not be able to do it... But she really did it. She was precocious to such an extent that she was a child prodigy!
It must be about today... No wonder I suddenly felt a stirring in my heart, wanting to come and see her. The Immortal Dao the Unseen; there really is such a connection.
This is a true genius!
Qin Yi pondered for a moment, then pointed a finger at the Jade Pendant he had given to Li Wuxian and modified Jade Pendant.
This Jade Pendant is made of Immortal Spirit Jade, a material commonly used by immortals. It boasts high compatibility and durability, and is not easily damaged. It's typically used for recording Cultivation Method and transmitting messages. The jade slip Minghe gave him earlier, guiding him to the celestial palace, was made of this material, as was Zheng's father's "autobiographical notes"...
Originally, Qin Yi was only at the realm of musical understanding, and what he infused into the Jade Pendant were only basic Cultivation Method, Daoist arts, and some minor tricks for Disease Exorcism and Disaster Prevention. Now that he has ascended to the clouds, he can do much more.
First, a passive protective Technique Method was added to the Jade Pendant, which would automatically activate protection and counterattack once attacked.
After thinking for a moment, he added a Formless Realm Spell. As long as Li Wuxian carried it, it would allow him to conceal his cultivation, preventing others from noticing anything amiss.
Finally, he added a trace of Divine Sense Perception, so that he could immediately be alerted if she were in danger.
Liusu said, "Shouldn't you pass on the Creation Golden Chapter to her?"
"She might be better suited to study something else by then. I'll come see her again after she's laid a solid foundation for two years."
"That makes sense, she might not want to become a dog."
Qin Yi silently transformed into a Wolf Tooth Club.
The genuine Wolf Tooth Club came down on him, and Qin Yi used the spiked Wolf Tooth Club to fight back.
A palace maid, still half-asleep, asked, "What was that sound...?"
The two Wolf Tooth Club, concealing themselves, fought their way out of the Imperial Palace.
Li Wuxian opened her eyes while meditating, touched the Jade Pendant hanging around her neck, seemed somewhat surprised, and then smiled sweetly, her two dimples were quite adorable.
Meanwhile, Qin Yi and Liusu fought their way through the air and then visited a Humble Origins tavern, intending to see an old friend, only to find it closed...
He didn't sell it to anyone else; the contents are still the same. I asked the neighbors, and they said the fat boss had just gone back to his hometown to visit relatives and had only been gone for two days.
Going back to my hometown to visit relatives? Isn't that just going back to the Demon City?
Qin Yi frowned, then relaxed. A cultivator from the Hanmen sect at the peak of Humble Origins Transformation stage has a high chance of breaking through to the Core Formation stage. There aren't many Core Formation demons in the White Kingdom; Ying Li, at the mid-Core Formation stage, is already a Grand Marshal second only to the Humble Origins. The Hanmen sect is clearly a formidable force. The Demon City is currently expanding into new secret areas, which probably won't be easy. They need talent, and it's understandable that they shouldn't keep such a strong force outside for a long time.
Hopefully, everything goes smoothly.
Qin Yi rose into the clouds once more and returned to the Celestial Palace.
"Great, what's with that Rainbow Cloud, Senior Sister? It doesn't look like Tengyun itself."
"That cloud is a Law Treasure, a flying one."
"Why would you need Law Treasure if you can fly?"
Liusu scoffed, "That's a stupid question. Why would a person ride a horse if they can run?"
"..."
"It's convenient, effortless, fast, and protective. Some large Law Treasure, like flying vehicles and ships, can even be offensive in themselves," Liusu said. "However, that handkerchief can't serve that purpose; it can't fly as fast as you, let alone anything else."
"Hmm, if that's the case, then Gongshu Lu and his group should be doing a good job with this?"
"It should be possible. Their craftsmanship combined with their Law Treasure forging skills is indeed very suitable for this."
"Why didn't you say so sooner? I should have gone to curry favor with them..."
"Why should we curry favor? If your War Hall doesn't conscript you, what's the point of having a War Hall Master?"
"Great!" Qin Yi said sincerely, "Why don't you turn into Little Ghost?"
"What?"
"That way it looks cuter, less annoying."
"Do you know what looks most irritating?"
"Have no idea."
The Liusu floated out of the ring and transformed into Qin Yi's likeness with a "pop." It was a smaller version, and a ghostly one at that.
Qin Yi: "..."
"Don't you really want to smash this face to pieces?"
"It seems so."
"This proves that this is the most deserving of a beating, right?"
"You are right."
The two Qin Yi, one big and one small, floated side by side in the sky for a while before Qin Yi suddenly realized, "You can transform into any shape now?"
Since it gained the ability to manifest, the Liusu has only ever taken three forms: White Jade Little Person figure, a floating Little Ghost, and a ghost face. It's not that it doesn't want to change into other forms, but rather that transforming into a form different from its original form would require more energy, and maintaining it would require additional energy, which is simply unnecessary.
The White Jade Little Person are mostly transformations of its true form; they're too cute to recognize its original appearance, and they don't last long. Only the Little Ghost and the ghost face are the two sides of its basic soul form, requiring no consumption.
This is the first time I've seen it change its appearance; it's not cute at all, and it lasts quite a while...
Liusu Su snorted twice, "That Ye guy has very strong soul power. It's not just the soul power of the third level of Huiyang, but also the fact that his original upper limit has reached the Shining Sun Peak, which is close to Qianyuan. There is still room for him to digest it. I haven't finished digesting it after waking up this time, and I still need to continue to cultivate in seclusion for a while. It's best not to bother me unless necessary."
"Alright then." Qin Yi looked at the Ten Thousand Dao Immortal Palace that was faintly visible in front of him and said in a low voice, "I'll be the Hall Master the Immortal Palace Battle Hall for a year or two... You go to sleep, Senior Sister Cloud Wandering, and I should get down to business."
When Qin Yi said those words, he never imagined that what he casually said about a year and a half would actually go by so quickly that he couldn't even keep up with the pace of time.
For someone who once thought they could stay in the village forever and never leave the house, settling down to a simple life of going to work and studying after get off work was all too easy...
Moreover, the previous accumulation was indeed too little, and the breakthrough was too fast. It really needs a period of accumulation, otherwise it will be detrimental to the cultivation of the Cloud Ascension.
The same applies to Liusu's soul state. This great nourishment will take it a long time to digest, and it's unknown what level it will be when it emerges again.
If this quiet and stable state of cultivation is not broken by a special catalyst, it may continue indefinitely until Ju Yunxiu returns sometime in some unknown year or month.
However, it is impossible for a man who possesses an ancient and wondrous soul, has obtained the most mysterious fragments, and is also surrounded by romantic luck, to live such a peaceful life forever... Of course, that is impossible.
